Product Overview
The MC68376BAMAB20 is NXP’s 32-bit CPU32 automotive & industrial MCU running at 20 MHz, built on M68000-compatible architecture. Equipped with independent TPU2 co-processor for offloaded PWM and timing tasks, it integrates 10-bit ADC, TouCAN 2.0B bus and serial peripheral modules. Packaged in rugged 160-QFP, it delivers stable deterministic real-time performance for powertrain, industrial machinery and avionic control systems.
Core Advantages
Advanced Time Processor Unit (TPU2)
Incorporates an autonomous on-chip TPU2 timing co-processor running its own microcode, managing up to 16 independent channels of advanced real-time timing routines without drawing any instruction bandwidth from the primary CPU32 core.
Integrated TouCAN Network Interface
Features a native CAN 2.0B protocol controller module containing independent message buffers, enabling seamless, high-speed, and noise-tolerant communication backplanes required in industrial grids and automotive vehicles.
Flexible Queued Serial Systems (QSM)
Equipped with a dedicated Queued Serial Module that handles asynchronous serial communication (SCI) and queued synchronous peripheral transfers (QSPI), allowing automated peripheral communication with minimal software polling overhead.
Automotive-Grade Wide Temperature Stability
Manufactured and tested to rigorous automotive and heavy industrial parameters, ensuring stable, jitter-free instruction execution across -40°C ~ +85°C wide thermal fluctuations and heavy electromagnetic interference (EMI) environments.

Frequently Asked Questions
Q1: Is your currently available inventory of the MC68376BAMAB20 microcontroller completely authentic?
A: Yes, we guarantee that all MC68376BAMAB20 microcontrollers in our warehouse are 100% brand-new, factory-original components. They are managed and dispatched under strict anti-static ESD shielding and moisture-sensitive dry-pack guidelines.
Q2: What is the significance of the independent Time Processor Unit (TPU2) integrated inside this MCU?
A: The TPU2 functions as an independent on-chip processor dedicated solely to real-time timing. It handles complex operations like PWM generation, frequency measurement, and engine cylinder ignition angle timing directly via microcode, leaving the primary CPU32 core free to handle overarching logic and arithmetic routines.
Q3: Does the MC68376BAMAB20 support the industrial standard Controller Area Network (CAN) interface?
A: Yes, it incorporates an on-chip TouCAN module. This module natively supports full implementation of the CAN 2.0B protocol, complete with independent transmit/receive message buffers, remote frame filtering, and robust error-tracking mechanisms.
Q4: How can our design team obtain the comprehensive register maps, reference programming guides, or request bulk volume quote adjustments?
A: Please complete our Quick Inquiry web form on this page with details about your processing parameters. Our application support desk will process your inquiry and dispatch the available technical documentation package within 24 hours.
